About this listen
“Do this in memory of me.”
You hear this commandment every week at Mass, but what does it really mean? Now you can discover how to become the Eucharist as Christ desired.
The celebration of the Eucharist is one of the most sacred and ancient traditions in Christianity. Catholics rightly consider the Eucharist to be the heart of our faith. At the Last Supper, Jesus gave us his own body to eat and blood to drink, but what did he mean when he gave us this commandment? Is it simply remembering and making present what Jesus did at that supper? Or does this command have larger implications?
In this clarifying audio course from Fr. Dan Crosby, you will discover the reason the Eucharist is referred to as a celebration. You will uncover a fuller meaning and challenge in the gift of the Eucharist through Scripture, the early Fathers, and Liturgy. You’ll also gain profound wisdom from such inspiring figures as St. Francis of Assisi and Archbishop Oscar Romero.
Over the course of these lectures, you will deepen your relationship with Christ and reinvigorate your participation in Mass and Communion. By becoming the Eucharist we celebrate, you will understand what it means to live a truly Christian life.
This course is part of the Learn25 collection and includes a free PDF study guide.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

In this course, Prof. Anthony Esolen will examine ancient Mesopotamia, Greece, Rome and Israel, seeing the disappointment and Messianic longing in the pagan Roman poet Virgil, and the fulfilled Messianic longing among the prophets and the inspired authors of the Old Testament. You will discover the ways in which the fulfillment of the person of Jesus Christ never ceases to surprise mankind, because it never ceases to contradict what fallen man accepts as great.

Story
No other institution, except possibly the papacy, has more greatly influenced the church and the larger history of the Western world than the ecumenical council. Most of us, however, know little about it. This course is designed to take you through the fascinating history of the ecumenical (church-wide) council, from its first appearance in Nicaea (325) through Vatican Council II (1962-1965). This 12-part audio series explores the deep issues of faith and the sometimes curious issues of clerical behavior with which the councils dealt.

Critic reviews
“Fr. Dan Crosby speaks with authority and unmasked passion, urging us to become the Eucharist we celebrate.... The Gospel comes to life with a compelling challenge to make a difference.” (Audrey Kast, PhD)
“I ministered with Fr. Crosby for nine years at our Capuchin retreat center in Wisconsin. I was privileged to observe first-hand his preaching style. His content is deeply biblical, and he has a gift of connecting the Scriptures with the lives of ordinary people. He is easy to listen to and is able to put theological-spiritual truths into everyday language.” (Fr. Martin Pable, OFM Cap.)
“Fr. Dan compels the viewer/listener to internalize the most powerful concepts, challenges and invitations of our treasure of faith. In so doing, his talks evangelize our spirits to become closer to Jesus and the Gospel challenges.” (Charles Erdeljac, PhD)
Truly inspiring!
